That if it has a problem that will cause it to fail soon in it's life, |
| 8 |
then I can find it soon. Remember that curve about failures? I would |
| 9 |
like to get past that first part of the curve. Maybe by the time I get |
| 10 |
to the later part, I'll have another drive or some backup scheme. Most |
| 11 |
the failures I have read about in reviews for this drive were early or |
| 12 |
was just plain old DOA. Testing it will get me past that. I'd rather |
| 13 |
it fail before I get my data on it instead of after. |

I thought I posted why I wanted to do this in my first post. |
